Randy Orton is an impressively decorated, third generation WWE Superstar. He's been with WWE for almost 15 years, capturing multiple world titles, and solidifying his status as a main-eventer and future Hall Of Famer, with the capability to put on classic matches with many of his peers.
His biggest obstacle as of late has been the seemingly endless feuds with the same opponents over and over and Cena agai...I mean over again.
For the past few years the only thing I can clearly remember Orton doing was nailing Seth Rollins with the RKO of his career (that Curb Stomp reversal, yo) and pinning him clean at Wrestlemania 31...the same show that later had Rollins cash in his Money In The Bank case in the main event to win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.
So, good job, Randy?
I don't know. Orton seems to be the most memorable guy that I can't remember crap about. That's not his fault, though, that's just lazy booking.
In September of 2015, he was sidelined with a shoulder injury suffered in a St. Louis Street Fight against Hefty Gladstone at Randy's House Arena. Cleared to wrestle, his first battle back is against The Beast.
This match against Brock Lesnar at Summerslam is pretty exciting. They haven't gone toe-to-toe in well over a decade, so it's fresh. Orton is a top-tier athlete in sports entertainment with that extra HP boost that comes with "The Return Of..." hype.
Brock is, well, BROCK. How does The Eater Of Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwiches lose to ANYONE after proving he can basically do anything he wants forever and get paid while doing it?
I don't think he does.
Pretty sure Randall's gonna get the Ol' Cena Summerslam Special. But while the match itself has plenty of potential, I'm actually more interested in the ramifications, if there even are any.
